Next Meeting
Tuesday, September 16, 6:30pm at Conjunctured, 1309 E. 7th Street, Austin Is Twitter relevant to your business? It's a huge and rapidly growing network of influentials and early adopters in a robust information environment that people just keep using even when it's broken. Originally conceived as a microblogging platform, Twitter has become a core messaging platform for the evolving social web. Articles about Twitter in business are popping up everywhere - such as Shel Israel's Business Week piece, "Getting Intimate (with Customers) on Twitter." (http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/sep2008/tc2008095_701983.htm)
Mike Chapman of Every Dot Connects (http://everydotconnects.com/our-team/mike-chapman/) will join Bootstrap Web September 16 for a conversation about TWitter and its relevance for bootstrappers.
Also note our new location - we're meeting at Conjunctured, the coworking company, at 1309 E. 7th St. Add Bootstrap Web to your calendars - 3rd Tuesday of each month!
